MCP connector

Scryn MCP lets you use Scryn directly from an AI assistant such as Claude. Once connected, the assistant can search 23.5M fully profiled private companies, pull profiles and contacts, and build lists, all from your conversation and on your behalf.

The connector server URL is:


https://app.scryn.co/mcp

Use the URL exactly as shown, with no trailing slash. The OAuth token audience and resource-server discovery identity are bound to this exact string.

Requirements

A Scryn MCP plan. Get an MCP server and we get in touch to set up your plan and send setup instructions. MCP is included from Team upward, and is also available as a standalone annual plan. Tool availability follows your plan.
An AI assistant that supports MCP connectors (for example, Claude).

Connecting

Option A: Claude connector directory

Once Scryn is listed in Claude’s directory: in claude.ai , go to Settings → Connectors, find Scryn, click Connect, and approve the Scryn consent screen.

Option B: Add as a custom connector (available today)

On paid Claude plans (Claude Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise): go to Settings → Connectors, choose Add custom connector, paste https://app.scryn.co/mcp, click Connect, and approve the OAuth consent screen.

Option C: Claude Desktop (one-click extension)

Download the Scryn desktop extension at app.scryn.co/scryn.mcpb and double-click to install. It handles the OAuth sign-in for you.

Other MCP-compatible clients (such as Cursor or VS Code) connect to the same URL via OAuth discovery, or via npx [email protected] https://app.scryn.co/mcp. After connecting, ask the assistant to search for companies and it calls Scryn on your behalf. You can revoke access anytime from Settings → Integrations in Scryn, or from your assistant’s connector settings.

start_competitor_search / get_competitor_search: Discover and retrieve competitors for a company.
list_related_organizations: Explore organizations related to a given company.

get_parent_classification: Understand a company’s corporate structure and classification.

start_exec_contact / get_exec_contact: Request and retrieve executive contact details.

Lists & exports

Exports consume export credits and may require a higher plan tier.

create_saved_list / list_saved_lists: Create and browse saved company lists.

get_usage: Check your current usage.
whoami / ping: Verify the connection and the authenticated account.

Authentication & scopes

The connector authenticates through a standard OAuth authorization flow. At the consent screen you approve exactly which permissions the assistant may use; it can act only within the scopes you grant. Tokens are stored securely and remain valid until you revoke access (at any time from Settings → Integrations) or close your account.

Scryn requests the following permissions:

Permission	What it allows
Search the company database	Run natural-language and structured filter searches. Running a search is free; companies it shows are downloaded using your export allowance (charged once per company, then free forever, shared with CSV exports from the Scryn App).
Read your saved lists and exports	Enumerate saved lists and exports; browse list metadata and export job status.
Read your conversation history	Read past chat sessions, including companies surfaced or find-similar results. Private user data, granted only when you explicitly accept this scope.
Read company profiles	Read full company profiles, hierarchies, and enrichment. Each company opened is downloaded using your export allowance: charged once per company, then free forever.
Create and modify your saved lists	Create lists and add companies (by id or criteria). Additive only: it cannot delete lists or remove companies.
Run CSV exports against your subscription quota	Start async CSV exports of companies matching a criteria. Each exported company consumes one export credit.
Unlock enrichment, competitors, leadership & contacts	Unlock group structure and consolidated revenue, find competitors, pull leadership and news, and reveal contacts (email and phone). Contact reveals are pre-charged to your enrichment-credit quota.

Usage & limits

Requests made through the connector count toward your Scryn plan’s usage, the same as searches run in the Scryn App. Use get_usage at any time to check your current usage. Some actions, such as unlocking enrichment or exporting, consume plan credits.

Data & privacy

When you use the connector, the company records and results you retrieve flow into your AI assistant’s conversation and are processed on that provider’s infrastructure under their policies. For full detail on what Scryn collects, how we use and store it, third-party sharing, and retention, see our Privacy Policy.
